DNA Methylation

Hidden Markov Modelling Reveals Neighborhood Dependence of Dnmt3a and 3b Activity
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark whose important role in development has been widely recognized. This epigenetic modification …
The Influence of Hydroxylation on Maintaining CpG Methylation Patterns: A Hidden Markov Model Approach
DNA methylation and demethylation are opposing processes that when in balance create stable patterns of epigenetic memory. The control …
MERVL/Zscan4 Network Activation Results in Transient Genome-wide DNA Demethylation of mESCs
Summary Mouse embryonic stem cells are dynamic and heterogeneous. For example, rare cells cycle through a state characterized by …
Model-Based Whole-Genome Analysis of DNA Methylation Fidelity
We consider the problem of understanding how DNA methylation fidelity, i.e. the preservation of methylated sites in the genome, varies …
In Vivo Control of CpG and Non-CpG DNA Methylation by DNA Methyltransferases
The enzymatic control of the setting and maintenance of symmetric and non-symmetric DNA methylation patterns in a particular genome …
